Eight convicts at a Tennessee state prison surrendered late Thursday as a tear gas assault loomed from an approaching Army tank. They released 25 hostages unharmed after a light hour revolt tied to prior prison conditions and a 1960 uprising. Prisoners cited lack of facilities, brutality, and mistreatment, while authorities described the incident as a planned emergency response.

Met Says No Hope For Season
The Metropolitan Opera Association cancels the 1961-62 season and breaks off talks with the musicians union, issuing layoff notices to over 600 workers. The dispute arose after Met rejected a demand to guarantee a 1961-62 season, with the union previously seeking higher weekly pay and benefits, while offering concessions. The city labor commissioner questions good faith amid the breakdown. A separate note: Freeport Public Library opens a supermarket “Rooketeria” Borrowing experiment for cardholders to sign out books displayed in-store.
